Yes, the answer is there is no review. Yet again I have another gater insisting I'm wrong het refusing to provide actual evidence.
Yet again you have another gater showing you the actual truth, acknowledging where a technical mistake by others has been made, and you ignore what actually happened so you can keep on chirping about the "non-review".
It's a text-based game
It is dark. You are likely to be eaten by a grue.
You wish it was even at this level of being a game, though even that wouldn't be fucking newsorthy in the modern era and you damn well know it. No, it was a "choose your own adventure" story with hyperlinks. Wow, like, so amazing. So progressive. Because it was a whiny bitchfest about how tough life is when you don't want to go to work. And this crap deserves top-billing in a story about 50 new games hitting Greenlight?
That's from before anyone has alleged they were in a relationship.
As has already mentioned, he was chummy enough with her to be playing an early copy of the game and being listed in the credits. And it didn't stop there, because he was also covering her as the centerpiece of a story on the failed game jam, right around the time of their sexual relationship. Also somewhere in between he's hanging out with her on a bed along with some others at GDC.
As a games "journalist", he crossed the line, no matter how you slice it.
How about you post a link to the actual review, or an archive copy of it? No need to go to secondary or tertiary sources here. I've been asking this question since gamergate broke and no one has pointed me to a review of the game.
At this point, I have concluded that the review does not exist and the whole thing is a lie.
If you've been asking this question since the beginning, then you should know the true answer. While people often make a technical mistake of saying there was a "review", the game received glowing coverage that any game developer would covet. As the article puts it, and you can verify yourself:
"Before GamerGate was even a glimmer in our eyes, Grayson wrote about Zoe Quinn's Depression Quest, a glorified choose-your-own-adventure meant to make you feel sorry about not having a mental disorder. Grayson gave this snooze-worthy wankfest top billing on an article for RPS about games which had recently been greenlit on Steam. Out of fifty games featured, Depression Quest not only comprised the first mentioned and most praised game there, but got the header image slot as well. It's a text-based game! Grayson even made the article title a play on the X-Quest theme, pulling out every stop to make sure this particular game would get noticed."
The tactics employed to "get tough" on drugs ended up entangling millions in the criminal justice system, sanctioning increasingly intrusive and violent policing practices, worsening tensions between law enforcement and marginalized communities, and degrading the constitutional rights of all Americans. Yet even as the drug war's failures and costs become more apparent, the Land of the Free is enthusiastically repeating the same mistakes when it comes to sex trafficking. This new "epidemic" inspires the same panicked rhetoric and punitive policies the war on drugs didâ"often for activity that's every bit as victimless.
Forcing others into sex or any sort of labor is abhorrent, and it deserves to be treated like the serious violation it is. But the activity now targeted under anti-trafficking efforts includes everything from offering or soliciting paid sex, to living with a sex worker, to running a classified advertising website.
What's more, these new laws aren't organic responses by legislators in the face of an uptick in human trafficking activity or inadequate current statutes. They are in large part the result of a decades-long anti-prostitution crusade from Christian "abolitionists" and anti-sex feminists, pushed along by officials who know a good political opportunity when they see it and by media that never met a moral panic they didn't like.
Other nations haven't moved to the left nearly to the extent that US has moved to the right. The proof is in the pudding - forget other countries, just take any Republican candidate from 20 years ago, and compare their platform to what GOP peddles today.
Back in the 90s there were debates about gays in the military, and Clinton enacted his "Don't ask, don't tell" policy. Now we have gays in the military, legalized gay marriage, and we're sparring over fucking bathroom issues for transgenders. There are states where you can buy pot legally. The Republican establishment didn't even want to talk about immigration until Trump forced their hand because of the shellacking they got in the last election.
The problem here -- and it's always been the problem, frankly -- is that the worker is considered a commodity. Not the foundation of the business, which is what they actually are.
If they aren't a commodity, then the business will fail or do worse when they treat their employees as commodities. If they are a commodity, then I don't see how it's any different than an employee changing jobs for better wages.
Who cares if Trump proposes a solution for resolving debt that only a third world government would do?
Then that makes the United States a third-world country, because it has both defaulted and inflated before. What do you think "quantitative easing" is besides inflating the money supply? As for defaults, you should look up the Nixon Shock.
Also the funny thing is that certain of these highlevel languages will use bindings to these older libraries written in C.
It's telling that C libraries are a major source of invulnerabilities in alternative, memory-safe languages.
However "C"-programming can be made more secure with a strict application of certain rules especially on "forbidden" & dangerous constructions.
Yeah, yeah, we've been hearing this tripe for decades. C is insecure by default, and it takes expertise and discipline to overcome that which is lacking in the real world, and even with all your "rules" you can still make a mistake. That's why in memory-safe languages all those "rules" are baked into the language.
If somebody paid for a "trending" spot, then it should be labeled as sponsored. That's probably a legal requirement under current FCC regulations, at least in the United States.
For anything else, it may not be surprising that they fuck with stuff, but their isn't any justification other than that they're fucks.
I don't know that it's even possible for a venue to avoid influencing the discussion. Who you market your "town square" to determines who shows up. How you deal with abusive users matters (and there's always some people who really do need to be kicked out).
Facebook is a social network. They don't need to curate, they can let the users do that for themselves. That there's anybody deciding what is "trending" is ridiculous.
Yes, I envy the USA and the wonderful, unbiassed, philanthropic networks run by massive multinational corporations
Yes, because the BBC has never shown bias or having an agenda driven by politics.
and the great thing is, freedom of choice: you can choose to watch the network run by the massive multinational corporation who's entrenched interests best represents your interests
Yes, there are a great number of choices, and you know, sometimes entertainment is just entertainment and not a corporate conspiracy to do their bidding. Of course, you can always go online or do whatever. But thank god you have the BBC to save you from the horrible fate of American television viewers!
Well, neither Reddit nor Twitter have banned opinions like the one you gave, so I guess there is nothing to worry about.
But we aren't talking about Reddit, we're talking about the new "safe space" the fired CEO from Reddit is hoping to create, so that's a straw man.
As for safe spaces though, yeah, incredibly someone who is transgender might want to discuss transgender issues they are facing with a sympathetic group on occasion, in which case such an opinion wouldn't be welcome.
Then let's be clear we aren't talking about "trolls", just people with "offensive" opinions.
I have no obligation to invite you into my home to state your opinion.
Why yes, I do believe in free association and rules for private property. But it's funny how that argument flies out the window when it comes to bathroom rules, baking cakes, or having "men only" clubs.
That's a lot of talking for somebody who "mathematically virtually-guarantee[d]" an outcome. Don't tell me to plug in the numbers, tell me what numbers you plugged in. My guess is you didn't plug any in, and were just talking out your ass.
You know, communism was actually attempted in countries across the globe, and failed spectacularly. Ayn Rand lived through that revolution in Russia. Anybody that steals the product of your efforts to distribute it to others is a looter.
Anybody defending communism these days is good for a laugh.

Nice job showing the extent of your intellect.
Burning wood for energy is not a black and white solution, and the more energy used the more difficult solutions become.
You offer no counter-argument, only insults and incorrect use of the term straw man. Try again.

You just described the gamer-gate movement. They absolutely go out of their way to review stuff that was not targeted at them.
You just described the social justice warriors posing as games journalists. Now let's have a laugh as Polygon "shreds some demons".
He successfully tricked them into thinking he's a Presidential candidate.
So did Trump, but he actually got his party's nomination. I can't imagine McAfee being nominated by the Libertarian Party.
I wouldn't take anything a prosecutor said on this point at face value without substantiating evidence:
The War on Sex Trafficking Is the New War on Drugs
The tactics employed to "get tough" on drugs ended up entangling millions in the criminal justice system, sanctioning increasingly intrusive and violent policing practices, worsening tensions between law enforcement and marginalized communities, and degrading the constitutional rights of all Americans.

Is there really no way to differentiate genuine trolling from people who simply disagree?
Troll: Some off-topic "f1rst p0st" gross-out story.
Opinion: Catering to trannies is a bad idea.
Oh, but we can't have "incorrect" opinions like that in our safe space!
Didn't they (they being Mozilla, but I don't think other browsers are any better) learn that users hate popups yet?
Mozilla has demonstrated over the past several years it knows what's best for users. Their desires or "needs" are irrelevant.
You're just as murderous and authoritarian as the tyrants you condemn.
Are you people so selfish that you would deny basic support for all if our society could afford it?
Humans are lazy. I believe in workfare.
That's a lot of talking for somebody who "mathematically virtually-guarantee[d]" an outcome. Don't tell me to plug in the numbers, tell me what numbers you plugged in. My guess is you didn't plug any in, and were just talking out your ass.
